How can you leverage individual strengths in your organisation for team success?

In the latest episode of the Happier at Work podcast, I have a dynamic discussion with seasoned learning and development consultant, Marijke Kershaw. Marijke delves into the Thriving Index, a groundbreaking tool t hat leverages self-awareness of strengths within the workplace. This tool is not only a game-changer for individual growth but also helps teams unlock their collaborative potential by identifying and harmonising strengths. The conversation spans succession planning, the art of job crafting, and a fresh perspective on personal development—all aimed at fostering a work environment where individuals and organisations thrive.

The main points include:

• Using the Thriving Index for self-awareness and leveraging strengths at work.
• How the Thriving Index supports organisations in high potential identification and succession planning.
• The power of recognising and integrating personal "signature strengths" and managing "allowable weaknesses. 
• Marijke's insights on job crafting to align work roles with one’s innate strengths.
• Strategies for succession planning using "critical role scoring" and creating "success profiles."
